HOL,SE OF PEERS, FRIDAY, FEB 26. M. Nolan wag beard fur the Respondents in the Appeal Crawford v. Sheddon, Patrick, and other'. The Wank-Loan Bill, and the Unclaimed Dit i dends' Bill, were read a t h rd lime; and the Brazil Trade Billvent through the Committee without auy amendment. The Petty Custonis Bill, and the Ten-Million were brought up from the Commons, and read a first time; and the Bill for regulating the - Otiice of Paymaster of the Navy, was read' a second time, and ordered to be com mitted. Lord ALUEMARL4 wished ,to be informed by the Noble Secretary, whether any steps had been. taken to fill the place of Lord Lieutenant of the County of Northlk, which has .been so lung vacant. In Ilia opinion, such delay at such a moment must be pro duaive of much inconvenience. Lord liMi;KEißliltY was not sensible that the de lay had given rise to any inconvenience, nor was such a delay any thing unusual. Lord ALBEMAULE said, he must abide by the opi nion of the Noble Secretary, that no inconvenience arose from the delay ; but without the sanaion of Such an opinion, he must have been brought to think otherwise. Lord HAWKESBURY presented some further Pa pers conneeied with the Correspondence with Rus sia, which were ordered to lie on the table, and, to be printed. Lord LAUDIAIDALE moved for an Account of the Number of Neutral Ships brought in, pursuant to the Order of Council of the t ith of November, up to the latest period to which the same could be made up.,—Ordered. AMERICA. The Order of the Day was then read, and. Lord BATHURST rose, mid Moved the third reading of the American Intercourse Bill ;, when Lord AUCKLAND 're-stated his former objec tions to the Bill, its violationg,the Law of Nations, the contradiction it involved :with the Orders in Council in ;short,. the violence and i n j ust i ce t h at characterize the present conduct of the British Go vernment towards America, and which would raise a blush in the cheek of the Dey of Algiers. Lord BATHURST was at a loss to know what was the conduct on the part of his Majesty's Go vernment which could provoke such harsh ltin guage. The object .of the present Bill was to con tinue our connnercial arrangements with America until the necessity arose to break it otf. It should be recollected that the Non-Importation. Ad was, on the part of America, an act of commercial hostility; and the exclusion of British ships and British mer chaudize from her marketS and ports something more than an a l / 4 1 of commercial hostility, in as much as it indicated a hostile spirit, and a preference of the interest a one Belligerent over those of the others, ,by which preference she no longer preserved a strict neutrality', but betrayed a di s p os i t i on to favO n r t he enemy of Great Britain. As to thoOrderii in Council, they ought not and could not be considered as hos tility directed against America. America, he trust ed, would view them in another light ; he ,V6S not without hopes that the next dispatches: would bring an account of the repeal of the Non-Importation •• Lerd GREATILI,E expatiated at great length on the euntradidory bearings of the two niensnres, the present Bill and the Orders in Council. Hew disgraceful must it appear to the, British Legislature, when it was considered that at the moment the pre sent Bill was piny to receive the Royal Assent, by the advice of both Houses' :of 'Parliarnent, ‘ another Bill was kpown to be belbre Parliament, which was at variance with, and Contiadided every thing con tained in the Bill now under consideration. It was said, Ametict ! bad betrayed a spirit of hostility against this Country, 'lv the passing of the Non ,importation Mt, and - by 'the exclusion of B r i t i s h shipping from the Atnerican harboUrs. These kis were termed aas of commercial hostility ; but had not every independent Nation the right of regulat ing its commercial system in what manner it thought proper ? Bet; from every thing he heard, from every thing he saw,. he could not but be convinced that Ministers were bent upon a war with America : they haVe caught the spirit which several priblica tions on this Subic& have endeavoured to propagate, and which they may have mistaken' for the opinion of the Country. 'The Net* Lord then commented very, pointedly on the answer of Mr. Canning .tu the Atiferican CointnisSioners, which, he contended, breathed,. in every sentence, a . provecati(in to . war. Of a similar tendency was the refusal to make tile lite . Treaty with . . America the basis of the present Negotiation, though it was evident that that Treaty was a conditional one s and signed in the spirit which civiliked nations haVe ever observed in all negotia tions, or as the Diplomatic expression was, Sub spe rati. lie mist entreat the House not to be led away by this cages for extending hostility. lithe failure of passino the present Mt involved any inconventeneits or dienities, be 'they bn the heads of those, who, of their own accord, and without consulting Parlia moot, have put forth Ads that must expose the Country to much more serious ditteulties, and not be impiited to men who warned them of their clan ; gers, and entreated them not thus wantonly to vio late the Law of Nations, the Statute, and the Com- Men Law dare Land. • Lord 1141HCES.RURr Would combat assertion ,by assertion, which, however, he pledged him ' self to prove, when the proper time came fur that discussion, that.the Orders in Council violated no law—as little were they specially hostile to - America. They were. an at of drstind, legiti mate warfare, wholly unconnected with any dispute with America, and which would have equally taken place had we remained in the most perted state of amity and good understanding with the United States. They were aimed at France only, and her Allies and . dependencies ; and if in their general scope they embraced America, it 'wee, that America might afterwards see the distinEtion that would be Made in her favour. The Noble Baron contended, dim every independent nation had a right to make what"commerdial regulations it thought propeK ; but Would he Say. that the Non-importation A&, that the excluston of British ships from the rivers and harbours of America, .while those of the enemy adatted, did not ilidicate an bOstile spirit; and alliiposition to abe'ttile.i:anso, and:promote the in.; terests of the Enemy. Yet the British C4overtiMent did not wish to consider these acts as a&f.4 of boiti- Illy, because they grew ont of the onfortunate affair between the Leopard and the Chesapeake, which, however, had.heen 4i-avowed by Government. No man deprecated more than he did a war with Ame , rica ; and no_ man would go farther to avert it : but it .was pot Jo - . be averted by any thing like a sacrifice of our-maritirne.rights,. which was agreed on all hands should never be surrendered, be the danger and difficulties of .the, Country what they might. The Noble Lord concluded wit - h an able vindication of Mr. Canning's note, •and an unanswerable awn meal, to prove that the late Treaty with America was a complete instrument, drawn op and acted up on as such, and not merely. a conditional Treaty. • Lord ERSKINE took. the same line of argument with Lord Grenville ; and after some explanation between Lords Hawkesbury and Auckland, the Bill was read a third time, without any further opposi tion.—Adjourried, till to-morrow (this dly). HOLISB OF COALYONS. FLECTIOhi COMNIITTEiS. Mr. BLACKBURNE reported (runt the Horsham Committee, that Sir Samuel _ Bart. and Jones Parry, ESq. were not duly elected ; that Jo seph Marryatt and Hello.' Golding, Esqrs. . were duly eleCied, and ought to have been returned ; and That the opposition to the Petition Was not frivolous or vexatious.--The Chairman of the GiimSbN,' Com mittee also reported, that Charles Andrew •Pelham, Esq. was not duly eleeted; thtit John ,Henry Loft, Esq. was duly eluted, and ought to have .been re turned; that the other Sitting Member was duly ele&ed ; and that neither the 'Petitions nor the op.•• position to them were frivolous or vexatious.--A Report was also made from the Saltash Committee, of which we could not • collect more, than that Thomas Freemantle, Esq. had not been duly eleeled. -'--Thp'Reports were • severally given in at the table, and the Deputy Clerk of the Crown ordered to at tend to amend the dill rent Returns pursuant to the • decisions of the Committees. A Person from the Bank of England presented, by order of the House, an Accotint of all the Bank of England Notes which had 'been in circulation including Bank Post Bills, between the Ist of Fe bruary, 1807, and the Ist of February, 1808, distin guishing the amount in circulation in each quarter, "and also the amount of those under ' five . pounds,— Ordered to lie on the table. The Inspeaor-General of • Exports and 'lmports presented an Account of the uan t ty tsl Star i avert ed into Great Britein in the year r 307,;and of the quan ty exported to frela id. Also of the quantity of Peru wian Bark imported wi t hin certain s'pecitied periods,and other Aecounts, purseant to order of the •House.-- , Ordered to lie'en the-table, and to be printed.' The Acceutit .df Bark imported was withdrawn, the motion of Mr. VANSITTAWC, at)d a new order made ,for the produttiun of an Account of the Amount ; of Peruvian Bark imported in the six years; ending the Ist of January 3 796, '180:3, , and.lBoB, respeaively, distinguishing the home consumption, the .qu.intity exported; and the respedive perieds. .•Mr. MELLISH presented a Petition front. the Bakers of the City of London, praying an -Amend ! meat of the diGrent Ads for Ilegnlating their 'Trade; as did Sir FitANCIS ; IitYRDETT, one train the Journeymen Bakers in the .City of Condon, and wit hiniwelve miles round, stating that the Aa ,of the :34th of the,King; for the :.better, Observance of . the Lord's Day, had proved inefficient to.its objeft, in consequence of the smallness of rise penalties, and praying the relief of the 'House, ; both Petitions .being read, were ordered to lie on the table, The Secretary of the ,Naval Asylum presented 'the .Papers moved Or on a former day :by Sir Charles . Pole; which,were ordered to lie ,on 'tire table, and,to be printed. • , . Mr. DA VEICPORT presented a. Nation from the Inhabitants of the Town of Stoekport, iu.favour of Peace. .The Petition, was accumpanied by a Bill, 'containing 2000 Itaine3; but on a statmnent,made by Admiral Betty ey, that the greater part of the sigriatures were apparently . written: by one hand,. and the fion. Member 11Qt_ belt% able, to itecthuit for this matter, the Petition having. only been put into his bands that morning, the Petition alone was alloWed to be brought np, andi. on its being readl was ordered to he on, the table. • , PILOTS , REGULATION RILL Mr. ROSE; purSuant to notice, rose to move for leave to bring in . a Bill for the better regulation of Pilots and Pilotage. His objed Was' not Only the security of the property on board Ves'sels naV igat 'the British seas, but also the prelervation the health and lives of the persons employed on board of them. There were no licen4ed Piloti established for this purpose, those of the Trinity House carrying vessels dOwnwards, and those of Deal and Dover navigating them upwards ; the consequence of this want of regular Pilots was, that between the South Foreland and the Isle of Wight VeaSelS were 'i.e., quently cast away, and amongst them, within short period past, five Indiamen. Under these eir Camstatices he had held frequent comumnications •with persons acquainted with the subjetit, and upon the result of these communications had. framed the , Bill which he proposed to introduce. It was not his intention to interfere.through its provisions with any corporate rights or chartered privileges,.such 'as were enjoyed at Hull, Newcastle, Bristol, and Liver- Pool. The objeet of the Bill was merely to give,. power to the Trinity House Commissioners to grant Licences, to Pilots in such places as there were nci Corporations possessing such powers for that ptsr. pose. That meritorious class of persons who had served their country in the merchant service was ready to undertake this duty gratuitously. He trusted. the House would see the importance of the meaiure, • and concluded with moving fur leave " to bring in a Bill for better regulating the Pilots and Pilotage of Ships navigating the British seas." Admiral HERVEY, as a professional man, combo rated every thing that had been so ably stated by the • Right Hon. Gentleman. Sir WILLIAM CURTIS returned th4nks to the Right Hon. Gentleman for the manner in which .he had brought forward this question, and intimated his intention, in the progress Of .the Bill, to move certain clauses for the corretiion of some omissions in the AtEt of last Session for regulating the Deal and Dover Pawl, Mr. CALCRAFT also stated, that it was his inten. lion to attend to the nrirrress of the Hill. nursuant to instrueti?ns from his Constituents ; after wh;cb leave was given to bring in the Bill, RUSSIAN PAPERS.

Mr. Sheridan, and a Divihion on .the iViotion of Mr.Tterney, the respeeive numbers of which we • could not learn, was read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time on Monday. I J 01.11CIAL I'APC.LtS. Mr. Secretary CaNAING, ; pursuant to the no tice he had given yesterday, rose for the purpose of moving for Copies or . Extratis . of any Dispatches that had been sent in November, or Decethber, 1806, by Mr. Giriicke; 116 Majesty's Minister to the Court of Denmark, ,to'his Maje4Y'S Secretary . of State for Foreign Atfairs, ° relatinci to the a‘::tual or intenried invasion of Holstein by the army of France. 'lt was , also his intention to *move for the several other Pa pers from , which he hadstated,passages to the House on a forniel . oecasion. His objea was, by proda,- ing the documents, to corred those misconstruc tions which had been put upon his conduct und lan guage,in t hats instance. As .he did not feel it neces sary to make any further observations on the subjeet of the Motion; he should barely move that an' hum ble Address he presented tali! Majesty, &c. On the Motion being put, Lort FO KSTO N E said, that he had been one of those wpo, on a Ibrmer occasion ; in part per suaded by the arguments of the Right Hon. Gentle- Irian,. and. w part from his own. oenviaion, had re sisted the:Production Of tii . eit! Papers. Nothing that had since occurred had altered his opinion. It these Papers were necessary to be produced, a great many more would 'be necessary, in order to set the persons who were concerned 'right with the Public:. TIIeSQ would not be . sufficient to justify Mr. Garlick; who could not be set right With the Public .but ,by the produCtion ()fall hisudtifiatches,'-down to the tirnit:of the Fotpedition to Copenhagen. Mr. E JORGts FOS ON/1Y could %vitt) . culty objeCC to the preduCtiott of any Papers that Might be itecesiary for the justification of any 'Hen. Gentlenian's condn&. But- be.had not ie much re spe:t tbr the feulings of any individicil, as 'to think that the public service should be sacrificed to them. The llightlixt. Gentleman heti made his extratte from the Papers, to she a that there had been a .hos tile teeling in Denmark, and thatthis- ol,iuiou of the present Ministers had been fortified by thei opinion of the late l‘dininistration. But his disp:itchesdate;i in November and December, 1806, 'would not Li ; sufficient for - his 'purpose e it• 'would be necessary t o produce all the dispatches that had been receive() clown to' the time of the Expedition. A utspiciou might have been entertained 'in 1806, which had afterwards been removed, and something of this d e .. seription, had, he believed, taken place, because in the commencement of 1807 a large fleet had bete colle6tek intended for the Baltic, which hid atter. wards been sent on ' , ,•arious other de"tinatior:.;s; whe n the suspicions respeeting: Denmark had btlen re r moved. The Right_ Hon. Gentleman first endea voured to justify Atte I.',xpetlition, and then he came to justify himself, but he cult) not justify Ininself unless he produced all the Papers. He: had: thought the Hon. Gentleman had intended to produce, all the con espondence of Mt; Gatlicke but it he should n ot , he gave them a notice that he should again 'vote 'for the prodnaion of those Papers. which he had betote made motions to'ohthin. Mr. TIEfiNEY felt cOmpassion tbr the. licit,. Gentlemen opposite. whnin he beheld in the pitia ble situation of ti<.ing called upon t{i vote for what they had rejeaed btit two or three weeks since. This was thefirst instance in which such a proceed'. ing had taken place. in Parliament. The Right Hon. Gentleman „had first resisted the production of the: Papers on public grounds, and afterwards when ed on private grounds for.theinstification of his no. ble friend (Lord Howick) ;* but now the - Right Hon. Gentleman's own character was touched, he w as ready to prodi.tte the Papers. He was glad thit Right Hon. Gentkrnati letgth shevv e d able attention to his chma:itor, and thou2,llt-tt preserving. ' But leaving private chamber out of the questiOn, he saw no reason why ,more attention should be paid to the charatier of the Right Ho L ,' Gentleman than to that el his noble ptedeeesso, 1 i
